Welcome

HireFriday helps job seekers at all phases of their career transition. We lend a hand, and encourage a heart by providing visibility, networking, support, and access to resources. We offer advice, based on sound career development, and recruiting principles.

Ed Han has been a part of the HireFriday movement since we launched in February 2010, and has been a steadfast supporter ever since. He’s developed outstanding skills using LinkedIn, and how to leverage it to move your career search forward. He’s hosting this week’s #HFChat on Twitter-Friday Noon-1 Eastern, 11 Central time. There’s no question that jobseekers have to be on LinkedIn: the question is are they making the most of it. So here are the questions we will explore this week:

Q1. Your LinkedIn profile must be at 100% complete. Everyone tells you this. But why?

Q2. There’s a simple way to increase the reach of your network: groups. Do you know how?
